More quotes by William Shakespeare
The stroke of death is as a lover's pinch, which hurts and is desired.
William Shakespeare
Pardon, gentles all, the flat unraised spirits that have dared on this unworthy scaffold to bring forth so great an object.
William Shakespeare
'Tis pride that pulls the country down.
William Shakespeare
It is the purpose that makes strong the vow But vows to every purpose must not hold.
William Shakespeare
I'll give my jewels for a set of beads, My gorgeous palace for a hermitage, My gay apparel for an almsman's gown, My figured goblets for a dish of wood, My scepter for a palmer's walking staff My subjects for a pair of carved saints and my large kingdom for a little grave.
William Shakespeare
I am wealthy in my friends.
William Shakespeare
As I love the name of honour more than I fear death.
William Shakespeare
Be just, and fear not. Let all the ends thou aim'st at be thy country's, Thy God's and truth's.
William Shakespeare
My love is as a fever, longing still For that which longer nurseth the disease, Feeding on that which doth preserve the ill, Th' uncertain sickly appetite to please. My reason, the physician to my love, Angry that his prescriptions are not kept, Hath left me, and I desperate now approve Desire is death, which physic did except.
William Shakespeare
I did never know so full a voice issue from so empty a heart: but the saying is true 'The empty vessel makes the greatest sound'.
William Shakespeare
All hoods make not monks.
William Shakespeare
Many that are not mad have, sure, more lack of reason.
William Shakespeare
The very substance of the ambitious is merely the shadow of a dream.
William Shakespeare
So many miseries have craz'd my voice, That my woe-wearied tongue is still and mute.
William Shakespeare
One whom the music of his own vain tongue doth ravish like enchanting harmony.
William Shakespeare
When Fortune means to men most good, She looks upon them with a threatening eye.
William Shakespeare
At Christmas I no more desire a rose Than wish a snow in May's new-fangled mirth But like of each thing that in season grows.
William Shakespeare
What's done cannot be undone. To bed, to bed, to bed.
William Shakespeare
So wise so young, they say, do never live long.
William Shakespeare
And yet,to say the truth, reason and love keep little company together nowadays.
William Shakespeare
